...re just three weeks before, the oxygen levels were recorded as being extremely low. The dead zone has been studied and tracked since it was discovered 20 years ago, DiMarco says. "We need to do some further research to determine the specific mechanisms under which hypoxia is created, maintained, and ultimatel...

... physical barriers of geography and migration, and recorded historical events. Although such complexities make pure mathematical analysis difficult, it was possible to integrate them into an elaborate computer simulation model. The computer repeatedly simulated history under varying assumptions, tracking the ...

After the operation, however, the patient showed what the researchers dubbed "cortical motion deafness." During perceptual tests, she stated "I do not perceive...

When the sodium current was blocked, L-type channels were only able to support slow oscillations at more depolarized potentials. 2.T...

...002 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recorded approximately 24,000 cases of the often-misdiagnosed and under-diagnosed illness. This was a 40 percent increase over the previous year.

There are still numerous regions of nutrient-poor oceans typically off the continental shelves from the equator north and south to about 40 degrees latitude about which little or nothing is known in ...

...r enhanced or reduced neuronal activity. They then recorded how the monkeys responded to a mild puff of air to the face. The researchers found that the activating drugs enhanced the flinch response--which included a squint, a blink, lifting of the upper lip, flattening of the ears, and a protective arm and sh...

...ions from a sophisticated computer simulation that recorded how much and how rapidly proteins mutated based on external changes in their environment. As the researchers ramped up the frequency and severity of environmental changes -- imagine rapid shifts between heat waves and cold snaps or heavy rains and dr...

And, she took monthly samples from the animals' scent glands and analyzed them using instruments in the Department ...

...ES from the wrist flexor and extensor muscles were recorded in five able-bodied volunteers and two volunteers with spinal cord injury. Volunteers activated 99% of the target states for at least 1 second and matched at least 87% of the target hand positions for at least 2 seconds. The hand grasp neuroprosthesi...

... legislation had required that all burned areas be recorded and mapped, as no land use change is permitted to occur on such terrain for 15 years after a blaze, no new building construction for the next ten years, and no new publicly funded reforestation for a half-decade. However the mapping of burn scars is...

...dy plants selected with their past flowering dates recorded in the Arboretum's herbarium, the researchers found a significant trend toward earlier flowering. On average, they found the plants flowered eight days earlier during the period 1980 to 2002 than they did 100 years ago. The data also sh...
